Abstract

The interaction Hamiltonian for the degenerate parametric amplifier leads to an eigenvalue equation which can be solved. The solution is used to construct the propagation kernel for the state vectors. We can then follow the evolution of the squeezed variable and its conjugate one. Also the changes of entropies during the process can be followed without difficulties.

Squeezed states and Shannon entropy

J. Aliaga, G. Crespo, Araceli N. Proto

A wave-function approach to the interaction Hamiltonian for the degenerate parametric amplifier has been recently presented [C. G. Bollini and L. E. Oxman, Phys. Rev. A 47, 2339 (1993)]. We want to show here that a maximum entropy principle density matrix approach can be used to reobtain all the results shown in this reference, and also to avoid the use of a nonproperly continuous generalization of the Shannon discrete entropy.

SHANNON INFORMATION AND ENTROPY SQUEEZING OF A SINGLE-MODE CAVITY QED OF A RAMAN INTERACTION

Mahmoud Abdel‐Aty, ISSA A. AL-KHAYAT, Shoukry S. Hassan

Entropy squeezing is examined in the framework of Shannon information entropy for a degenerate Raman process involving two degenerate Rydberg energy levels of an atom interacting with a single-mode cavity field. Quantum squeezing in entropy is exhibited via the entropic uncertainty relation.

Based on the new type of single-mode squeezed coherent state , which differs from the conventional squeezed state in that its displacement parameter depends on its squeezing parameter, we calculate the partition functioa, free energy and density matrix for a generalized degenerate parametric amplifier.

Maximum-entropy principle in the interaction picture: Approach to time-dependent relevant operators

J. Aliaga, G. Crespo, Araceli N. Proto

A reformulation of the well-known maximum-entropy principle in the interaction picture is shown. The advantage of this approach for the case in which the relevant operators in the interaction picture do not depend explicitly on time is stated. As an example, we study the dynamical evolution of the dispersions of the so-called slowly varying quadrature operators for the degenerate parametric amplifier and the temporal behavior of the squeezed states associated with this system.

Squeezing in a detuned parametric amplifier

H. J. Carmichael, Gerard J Milburn, Daniel F. Walls

The effect of detuning on the squeezing obtained in a prototype model for squeezing, namely the degenerate parametric amplifier, is investigated. A squeezed minimum uncertainty state is only obtained in a set of variables related to the original variables by a time dependent transformation. The required transformation is obtained using a symplectic decomposition of the dynamic evolution matrix.

Quantum spatial propagation of squeezed light in a degenerate parametric amplifier

Ivan Deutsch, J. C. Garrison

Differential equations which describe the steady state spatial evolution of nonclassical light are established using standard quantum field theoretic techniques. A Schroedinger equation for the state vector of the optical field is derived using the quantum analog of the slowly varying envelope approximation (SVEA). The steady state solutions are those that satisfy the time independent Schroedinger equation. The resulting eigenvalue problem then leads to the spatial propagation equations. For the degenerate parametric amplifier this method shows that the squeezing parameter obey nonlinear differential equations coupled by the amplifier gain and phase mismatch. The solution to these differential equations is equivalent to one obtained from the classical three wave mixing steady state solution to the parametric amplifier with a nondepleted pump.
